In order to read the publications of his peers, or read his own notes of the work
that he did on the previous day, or find his coffee mug on his desk in the lab, the
research scientist must arrange to have each of them illuminated with visible
wavelengths of light, and then he must catch the light reflected from each of them
with his eyes.
Answer:
The peak value of the electric field is 489.64 V/m
Explanation:
Given;
power of the laser, P = 1.0 mW = 1 x 10⁻³ W
Radius of the beam, R = 1.0 mm = 1 x 10⁻³ m
Area of the beam = πr² = π(1 x 10⁻³ )² = 3.142 x 10⁻⁶ m²
The average intensity of the light = P / A
The average intensity of the light = ( 1 x 10⁻³) / (3.142 x 10⁻⁶)
The average intensity of the light = 318.27 W/m²
The peak value of the electric field is given by;

Therefore, the peak value of the electric field is 489.64 V/m.
<em>Another key factor that determines a star's colour is its temperature. As stars become hotter, the overall radiated energy increases, and the peak of the curve changes to shorter wavelengths. To put it another way, when a star heats up, the light it produces moves toward the blue end of the spectrum.</em>
Answer:
<em>a) 0.72 V</em>
<em>b) 19.2 mA</em>
<em>c) 2.304 Watts</em>
Explanation:
A transformer is used to step-up or step-down voltage and current. It uses the principle of electromagnetic induction. When the primary coil is greater than the secondary coil, the it is a step-down transformer, and when the primary coil is less than the secondary coil, the it is a step-up transformer.
number of primary turns =
= 500 turns
input voltage =
= 120 V
number of secondary turns =
= 3 turns
output voltage =
= ?
using the equation for a transformer

substituting values, we have


= 360/500 =<em> 0.72 V</em>
<em></em>
b) by law of energy conservation,

where
= input current = ?
= output voltage = 3.2 A
= output voltage = 0.72 V
= input voltage = 120 V
substituting values, we have
120
= 3.2 x 0.72
120
= 2.304
= 2.304/120 = 0.0192 A
= <em>19.2 mA</em>
<em></em>
c) power input = 
==> 0.0192 x 120 = <em>2.304 Watts</em>
Remember Newton's second law: F=ma
to get the force in newtons, mass should be in kg and acceleration in m/s^2
conveniently, we don't need to convert units
we just need to multiply the two to get the force
65* 0.3 = 19.5 kg m/s^2 or N
if significant digit is an issue, the least number if sig figs is 1 so the answer would be 20 N
